    I saw Mercedes Ruehl many years ago in a revival of The Rose Tattoo at Circle in the Square. Her co-star was Anthony Lapaglia.

    I have seen 16 of Mercedes Ruehl’s films including Married to the Mob which I saw in Honolulu. The highest ranked I have not seen is For Roseanna.

    Merecedes Ruehl has not been in many movies so she’s never been on the Oracle of Bacon list, but she hasn’t done too bad in the connection world. These are the actors on the 2020 list she appeared with.
